Gee, a Family Dollar haul. Even Dollar Tree is less shitty. She saved so much, $4! Plus 3000 "fetch points"
So it's the start of the "trifecta of holidays?" Idk, I think of Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's more in that way. Anyway, they picked decorations, cutesy and sparkly for Jen 'cause that's what girls like, and creepy and gory for Gene 'cause he's a guy. (She really never matured past preadolescence, huh? Obviously Gene likes gore if he's with Jen.
She bought the most basic-ass shit in generic brands. Deodorant, painkillers. About 5 different Gain products in the same scent. 3 or 4 body washes to get fetch points. Generic pop tarts, "for Gene."
Next up Kroger haul.
• canned pumpkin
• strawberries
• blackberries
• raspberries
• bananas (for Gene)
• two cantaloupes she can't show you because they're out of reach
• cauliflower
• pre-prepped roast and veggies. It can be made in a pressure cooker, oven, or slow cooker. (Unlike other roasts)
• 3 lbs of ground beef. 80/20 this time as 70/30 was too greasy, "even for me" (she actually said that).
• egg bites. They were expensive, 2/$4. So she won't be buying those again. Instead, she bought a machine to make them. So thrifty! Someone tell this bitch she can make them in her instant pot.
• in anticipation of her dedicated egg bite machine arriving: 2 packs of pre-cooked bacon crumbles. She couldn't find pre-cooked sausage crumbles except for turkey. It had 3 carbs, so no way for this keto kween. She got regular pork sausage she'll have to sit at the stove and cook (or make Gene do it).
• 2 packs shredded swiss. She looked for gruyere like the recipe called for, but couldn't find it. Just what she should buy with her food stamps.
• 1 pack shredded Colby jack
• cottage cheese
• smoked sausage ring
• salami
• pepperoni #lowcarblife
• butter
• 1 1/2 dozen eggs
• lunchables and cereal bars for Gene to have at work
• they hit up the clearance area for 2 boxes of discount Atkins bars- the cookies and cream flavor has 4 grams of carbs! Fuck you, turkey sausage!
• Oh, and she "almost forgot" but Gene helpfully reminded her of even more treats, I mean "diet snacks." 2 cocoa peanut butter pie Think bars, and some Quest cookies. She likes to add peanut butter to them.
